While I appreciate your efforts, you should clarify your discount and say it is for all active and retired military personnel. There are many of us that are veterans that did not retire from the military. I feel that my 6 years of service were just as vital as those that served 20 years. I do not m ins that your way promotion does not include me, just don’t advertise that it does. Thank you.

Thank you for taking the time to give us feedback. We’d like to clarify that the Military & Veterans Discount is intended for Active, Retired and Veterans of the US Military. The only restriction we have in place is that families must travel with the individual who meets these guidelines for the reservation to qualify for the discount. We’ve updated the content in this post to assure the message is more clear. Thank you Mr. Burnell for your service to our country.

Out of curiosity, why doesn’t your discount apply to your overseas properties? My wife and I are considering your resort in St. Maarten. The 10% is a lovely gesture, but it doesn’t do much in this circumstance. Was wondering if there is any consideration for the future of your company to extend this offer?
Thank you for your time.

We are staying at the Sonesta Hilton Head location and inquired about the military discount. First we were told it was not available on the weekends, when I pointed out that was not specified on the website then suddenly the military discount was only available based on availability. Like Mr. Burnell said, I do not mind the restrictions but please do not advertise otherwise. As a military family we often make decisions (especially large purchases like vacations) based on which businesses offer military discounts. I feel your website is deceptive and that will factor into future travel decisions for us.
